Crossing the Sauvignon Blanc

Chapter 181 Xinyue's Decision

"Huh, the world is finally quiet! Fenglong, where's Xinyue? I haven't seen her since early this morning!"

Xiaoyao took Xiaoliu's hand, clinging to Xiaoliu's side, and asked Fenglong curiously with wide eyes. Fenglong hadn't recovered from the beating of Tushan Jing and the cruelty of Xiaoliu. Seeing Xiaoyao's affectionate embrace of Xiaoliu, his eyebrows curved, and then seeing Xiaoliu's cold, ruthless face, Fenglong suddenly remembered the day when they played chess. Xiaoyao said coldly: Do you like killing people?

Feng Long shuddered and smiled awkwardly.

"Xinyue, I didn't see her either. I heard from the servants that she slept with you last night?"

"Yes, they were together. I haven't seen her since I woke up this morning. Could she be drunk and wander around after waking up in the middle of the night? How about we go look for her?"

"Okay, I'll get everyone to go look for it together."

Feng Long shook off the strange feeling in his head. He looked at Xiao Liu and felt that she resembled Xiao Yao that day. Xiao Yao, facing Tu Shan Jing's abuse and injury, had been smiling happily. She had once said that she would kill anyone who set his sights on her! Did Tu Shan Jing set his sights on Xiao Yao? Was that what had angered Princess Xiao Liu?

Feng Long shook his head. No, isn't Tu Shanjing in love with Princess Xiaoliu? What on earth happened last night...

He needs to ask someone.

"Miss…"

"Xinyue? Where are you?"

After searching for a while but not finding anyone, Xiaoyao led Fenglong to Tushanjing's side courtyard to check.

"Xinyue shouldn't come here..."

"That's all I've missed, let's look for it."

The three of them entered the side yard together. Just as they were about to open the door, they heard a creak and the door opened by itself.

"What are you looking for me for so early in the morning? I hear you guys calling me everywhere!"

Xinxiang spoke coldly and impatiently, her eyes sweeping over the three people and the attendant outside looking for her. If you weren't listening closely, you wouldn't have noticed the suppressed tremor in her voice. She was dressed neatly and elegantly, her face and neck thickly covered in powder. The left side of her face was particularly swollen.

Xiaoyao walked forward and grabbed Xinyue's hand. Xinyue subconsciously stepped back, and her hand was freed. Xiaoyao asked with concern, "Xinyue, you weren't there when I woke up. I thought you woke up first, so I didn't pay much attention. But since no one seemed to see you, I was worried that you might have wandered off drunk...Xinyue, what's wrong with your face?"

Xinyue panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down. She forced an awkward smile and said worriedly, "It's because I drank too much and my face is swollen. I remembered I put the ointment here, so I came over to apply it. Xiaoyao, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

Xinyue walked around Xiaoyao and walked out with strange steps. When she passed Fenglong, she called out softly, "Brother..."

Her voice was a little out of control and aggrieved. What had she done wrong to have to endure all this?

Xinyue was afraid of losing control and crying, so she just screamed once and left. Xiaoyao looked at her awkward posture and sneered. It was a bit bitter, and she had to grit her teeth and swallow it with blood! In her previous life, because of Xuan, she was tricked into throwing her into the jade coffin and being swept into the whirlpool. If it weren't for Xiangliu risking his life to save her, she would have been completely destroyed. Later, he sent people to hunt her down. Fortunately, Zuo'er saved her. Chishui Fenglong was an accomplice. Why should she let them have an easy time? They are the real family, right? They always like to calculate! They like to use the abacus on her. Do they really think she is a soft persimmon?

"Xinyue..."

Fenglong always felt that something was wrong with Xinyue, but he couldn't put his finger on what. He watched Xinyue hurried away, and finally stopped calling out. Perhaps he was really tired!

"Wang Ji, Xinyue has also been found. What are your plans for today?"

When Feng Long turned around, Xiao Yao had already put away her sneer. After hearing Feng Long's question, she thought for a moment and replied, "I'm planning to go back today. I've been living here for quite a while. Thank you very much, Brother Feng Long, for your hospitality over the past few months. I've had a lot of fun!"

"Xiaoyao, you're leaving now. Can't you stay a little longer?"

Fenglong was really reluctant to let Xiaoyao go, and he hadn't even told Xiaoyao what he was thinking yet.

"Well, I have a friend over there who needs my care. I'm a little worried. Life is long, so don't mind a short separation. We can just get together more often in the future!"

Seeing Xiaoyao's insistence, he said nothing more and ordered the servants to help Wang Ji pack up her things.

"Yes, we're all so close, we can meet up anytime we want. I'm just being obsessed! I'll take you guys off. Do you want to tell Xinyue?"

"No, let her rest!"

Xinyue returned to her room and called her maid. As soon as the maid came in, Xinyue slapped her to the ground.

The little maid felt very aggrieved. She sat crookedly on the ground, covering her left cheek with her hands. She was full of confusion and cried, "Miss, what did this servant do wrong?"

"What did you do wrong?! Where were you last night? I was drunk, why didn't you stay and take care of me?"

She had no recollection of what happened last night. Even if she was drunk, how could she not be sober after being treated like that? She was being plotted against, but who was that person? Whoever it was, if she knew, she would make him suffer a fate worse than death!

"Last night, Miss, you were drunk, and it was two princesses who helped you back home. Princess Xiaoyao said she would stay to take care of you tonight and asked me to go back and rest. Princess Xiaoliu went back soon. After that, I don't know what happened..."

"Isn't she drunk too? How could she take care of me? You believe that? You're just a slave! How dare you abandon your master? Come on! Drag her out and beat her to death!"

"Miss, I know I was wrong. I won't do it again, Miss..."

The sound was getting farther and farther away, and the little maid was pulled out by two people. After a while, a scream was heard, and soon it died down. The maid fainted on the spot.

Xinyue was furious when she heard this! If the maid had been more careful, perhaps she wouldn't have gotten into trouble. No, that's not right. This was done intentionally. Even if the maid was here, she would still have been plotted against. There are many guards in this manor, but no one noticed how she went to Tushan Jing's place last night and did that. Such a big commotion, but no one noticed. It's weird everywhere.

"Somebody come!"

A guard came over and stopped at the door. He clasped his hands together and saluted before replying, "What are your instructions, young lady?"

Xinyue's face was even more embarrassed. There were guards outside her room...

"Who was on guard last night? Go call him over, I have something to ask!"

"Yes!"

The guards took the order and went down. After a while, a thin man came over with the previous guards.

"Tell me, where did you go last night?"

The guard knelt down in fear. He felt uneasy when he heard Xiao Tao's scream, but he didn't know what happened.

"Last night... Last night I was on patrol and suddenly lost consciousness. When I woke up, it was already daybreak. Miss, I really didn't mean to do that. Someone must have knocked me out. Please, please forgive me! Miss..."

Seeing this, another guard knew something must have happened and immediately knelt down to plead for mercy.

"Miss, Ajie has always been serious about his work and there's no way he'd be lazy. This incident is too strange. Xiaotao was obviously sent away on purpose, and Ajie was drugged. If something really happened to you last night, it must have been done on purpose. Also, something very strange happened this morning!"

Xinyue was lost in thought. Upon hearing this, she looked up and asked anxiously, "What's going on?"

Could it be related to her?

"Early in the morning, I went to the toilet. When I came back, I saw two princesses coming out of Tushan Gongzi's courtyard. I was far away, but I recognized them because they were so beautiful. However, I am a small person and I don't care about the princesses' affairs, so I didn't pay attention to it. However, the strange thing is that this morning, Tushan Gongzi was beaten by that Xiaoliu Princess. The means were extremely cruel. Not only did they destroy Tushan Gongzi's Dantian, but they also broke both of his legs and even crushed them into a pulp! The servants saw this. The two princesses were extremely arrogant. Moreover, Xiaoliu Princess's words seemed to know what Tushan Gongzi had done wrong. Tushan Gongzi didn't dare to say anything. He was very afraid of Xiaoliu Princess, but he also seemed to hate Xiaoliu Princess to the core..."

Xinyue was shocked and trembling all over. She was in a panic. Had her affair been known? Had Xiaoyao seen it? How could she marry Xuanxuan then? No, she couldn't let anyone know.

"Where are the princesses? Where are they?"

"I heard from the servants that the young master has just arranged for someone to send them back!"

Place

Xinyue panicked and wanted to get up and chase him, but she felt a sharp pain in her lower body! Xinyue took a deep breath and sat down again. If she went there like this, would they laugh at her? They probably wouldn't tell anyone. Xinyue felt relieved, but she felt like there was a thorn in her heart, piercing her heart. She wanted to kill people like crazy to vent her anger.

"Go down and get me some water. I need to take a shower and change clothes. Don't spread what happened today, or Xiaotao will be your fate!"

……

Xiaoyao? Xiaoliu?

Xinyue sat in the bathtub, looking at the bruises and red marks all over her body. The pain below made her unbearable. She felt wronged, angry, unwilling, sad and hateful... Emotions appeared on her face, making her look a little crazy. She scrubbed herself desperately, so dirty! She had never felt so disgusting before. Tu Shanjing was even more disgusting. Thinking of what Tu Shanjing pulled out of her body, she wanted to kill him and herself, but she couldn't die.

Then just let them die...
